• For Glossary Auto Import and Custom Field Auto Sync for Glossary, use objects under Glossaries.
  • NOTE: You can use a custom command to ensure that columns from Atlan are properly renamed to follow the Metric Insights' naming convention for Glossary:
    • var Definition = concat(User description)
    • var Description = concat(Read me)
    • var Includes PII = concat(PII?)
    • fields = Term, Section, Definition, Description, Certification Status,Includes PII, Certification Level, Business Owner, Technical Owner, Data Steward, Business Owner Group
• For Glossary Auto Sync and Custom Field Auto Sync for Elements, use objects under Term to Asset Relationship.
  • NOTE: Beginning in 7.0.1a, for Custom Field Auto Sync for Elements, use objects under All Reporting Assets.
